More on the Chicks

Well, we have three chicks. That's not great considering how many eggs I was incubating, in fact that's only a 9% hatch rate. Not good at all, actually. But, I think I've learned some things that I need to do differently when we try it again, and hopefully we'll have more success next time.

Georgia is doing great. Bama, I'm not too sure about; it appears to have something wrong with its feet but I just really don't know. If it cannot learn to walk properly we will not be able to keep it. Kentucky just came out of the shell this morning, so it's too early to tell how it will turn out. I guess sometimes you cannot count your chickens even after the chicks hatch. *grin*
